About this mod

This mod adds a new paired weapon sheathed at the back of the hip, switch between light and heavy attacks, stay on move and play super aggressively, a high skill ceiling mod with a bunch of depth and cool factor B)

Requirements
Permissions and credits
A sword that none can pull from its scabbard of cracked stone.
Relic of a lost civilization from a time long past, said to have served a ritual purpose at altars of light and darkness.
I had a headache the whole time while playing this, 10/10


This mod includes A brand new (kinda!) paired (kinda!) weapon,
and a snazzy moveset to go with it:

Twin Sheathed Blades

The weapon consists of twinned, Light and Dark powered blades,
The Dark blade sports quick attacks that can be cancelled early,
While the heavy Light-blade features slower, heavier hitting attacks
The two blades can be used in both one-handed and two-handed mode


in Two Handed mode:
Switch blades with R1 (light) and L1 (dark) inputs
each of the blades features a full moveset including running/jump/dodge attacks

in One Handed mode:
tapping R1 will use the dark blade, holding R1 will use the Light blade.
each of the blades features a full moveset including running/jump/dodge attacks




Dark blade attacks build up momentum and charge up the other blade with a holy aura,
three charge levels can be acheived, increasing light-blade only damage and range.



The special dodges can be accessed by dodging during a dark blade attack or via the AOW,
the special backstep sends you into the air, allowing you to perform 2 follow ups with R1 or R2



Tapping L2 will put you in the low dodge stance,
dodging will lead to the faster dodges,
R1 followups give you a quick darkblade ranged poke



The AOW R2 follow up performs a heavy attack in an area around you
Both AOW attacks do flat holy damage and level with weapon upgrade levels.




The moveset also features heavy attack cancels,
as well as a few other nifty hidden features,



A showcase video is available with more detailed instructions:


This mod was made to be highly mergeable and lightweight, because you're probably playing with a cool modpack already.
might be impossible to merge with larger modpacks - don't try to do that unless you know what you're doing.
Merge Tae's 633 into the c0000.anibnd,
copy the c0000.chrbnd into the chr folder.
as well as all extra animations in the other anibnd file.
Merge the changes in the c000.hks commented with -- Sword of Light and Darkness
search the regulation.bin for [Sword of Light and Darkness] and [kmstr] for all relevant entries.

The Weapon can be bought from Kale at the Church of Elleh,
or added in with cheat engine using the ID 2570000.


To Install:
  • download mod engine 2: https://github.com/soulsmods/ModEngine2/releases and extract its contents to the game folder
  • Download the mod and extract everything into the "mod" folder in the same directory as the "modengine2_launcher.exe".
  • Start the game from launchmod_eldenring.bat


Special Thanks:
HUGE thanks to Goylet for his Biped creation and retarget scripts, and for generally helping me get to grips with 3ds Max
Raster For help with the weapon model
Blubber515 for their retargetted animations and very easy to use repository.


Final Notes:
I will be merging this mod as well as my future releases into my modpack ASAP.
